Effect of hydration on the elasticity of mantle minerals and its geophysical implications     

Zhu Mao  XinYang Li 《中国科学:地球科学(英文版)》2016,59(5):873-888

Recent studies have shown that major nominally anhydrous minerals in the Earth’s mantle, such as olivine, pyroxene and garnet, can incorporate considerable amounts of water as structurally bound hydroxyl. Even a small amount of water is present in mantle minerals, it can strongly affect a number of physical properties, including density, sound velocity, melting temperature, and electrical conductivities. The presence of water can also influence the dynamic behavior, lead to lateral velocity heterogeneities, and affect the material circulation of the Earth’s deep interior. In particular, seismic studies have reported the existence of low-velocity zones in various locations of the Earth’s upper mantle and transition zone, which has been expected to be associated with the presence of water in the region. In the past two decades, the effect of water on the elasticity and sound velocities of minerals at relevant pressure-temperature (P-T) conditions of the Earth’s mantle attracted extensive interests. Combining the high P-T experimental and theoretical mineralogical results with seismic observations provides crucial constraints on the distribution of water in the Earth’s mantle. In this study, we summarize recent experimental and theoretical mineral physics results on how water affects the elasticity and sound velocity of nominally anhydrous minerals in the Earth’s mantle, which aims to provide new insights into the effect of hydration on the density and velocity profile of the Earth’s mantle, which are of particular importance in understanding of water distribution in the region.  相似文献

伴随着城镇化进程的提速,黄土地区由于工程切坡诱发了大量的工程滑坡。为了研究典型工程黄土滑坡的成因机制,以宝鸡市扶风县飞凤山滑坡为例,开展了野外地质灾害详细调查,同时进行原位渗水试验和原状黄土、古土壤试样土-水特征曲线测试。试验结果表明：当黄土存在小孔洞等结构性问题时,渗透系数可达10-4 cm/s量级,为中等渗透性等级;土-水特征曲线试验求得古土壤的进气值为11.5 kPa,大于黄土的9.0 kPa,同时曲线也显示了古土壤和黄土干湿交替过程中,强度和变形的演化出现分化。在试验结果分析基础上,指出工程切坡是滑坡发生的主要诱发因素,由此触发了土体一系列物理化学链锁反应,尤其是强化了土-水耦合作用的影响,催化了滑坡的发生。最后,提出了飞凤山滑坡的破坏模式为滑带双向发展、兼具滑塌灾害部分典型地质特征的渐进式破坏。  相似文献   

An exploratory analysis of vegetation strategies to reduce shallow landslide activity on loess hillslopes,Northeast Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,China   总被引：8，自引：2，他引：6  

HU Xia-song  BRIERLEY Gary  ZHU Hai-li  LI Guo-rong  FU Jiang-tao  MAO Xiao-qing  YU Qin-qin  QIAO Na 《山地科学学报》2013,10(4):668-686

Heavy summer rainfall induces significant soil erosion and shallow landslide activity on the loess hillslopes of the Xining Basin at the northeast margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This study examines the mechanical effects of five native shrubs that can be used to reduce shallow landslide activity. We measured single root tensile resistance and shear resistance, root anatomical structure and direct shear and triaxial shear for soil without roots and five root- soil composite systems. Results show that Atriplex canescens (Pursh) Nutt. possessed the strongest roots, followed by Caragana korshinskii Kom., Zygophyllum xanthoxylon (Bunge) Maxim., Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. and Lycium chinense Mill. Single root strength and shear resistance relationships with root diameter are characterized by power or exponential relations, consistent with the Mohr- Coulomb law. Root mechanical strength reflects their anatomical structure, especially the percentage of phloem and xylem cells, and the degree and speed of periderm lignifications. The cohesion force of root- soil composite systems is notably higher than that of soil without roots, with increasing amplitudes of cohesion force for A. canescens, C. korshinskii, Z. xanthoxylon, N. tangutorum and L. chinense of 75.9%, 75.1%, 36.2%, 24.6% and 17.0 % respectively. When subjected to shear forces, the soil without root samples show much greater lateral deformation thanthe root-soil composite systems, reflecting the restraining effects of roots. Findings from this paper indicate that efforts to reduce shallow landslides in this region by enhancing root reinforcement will be achieved most effectively using A. canescens and C. korshinskii.  相似文献

Beak measurements of octopus (Octopus variabilis) in Jiaozhou Bay and their use in size and biomass estimation

Cephalopods play key roles in global marine ecosystems as both predators and preys. Regressive estimation of original size and weight of cephalopod from beak measurements is a powerful tool of interrogating the feeding ecology of predators at higher trophic levels. In this study, regressive relationships among beak measurements and body length and weight were determined for an octopus species (Octopus variabilis), an important endemic cephalopod species in the northwest Pacific Ocean. A total of 193 individuals (63 males and 130 females) were collected at a monthly interval from Jiaozhou Bay, China. Regressive relationships among 6 beak measurements (upper hood length, UHL; upper crest length, UCL; lower hood length, LHL; lower crest length, LCL; and upper and lower beak weights) and mantle length (ML), total length (TL) and body weight (W) were determined. Results showed that the relationships between beak size and TL and beak size and ML were linearly regressive, while those between beak size and W fitted a power function model. LHL and UCL were the most useful measurements for estimating the size and biomass of O. variabilis. The relationships among beak measurements and body length (either ML or TL) were not significantly different between two sexes; while those among several beak measurements (UHL, LHL and LBW) and body weight (W) were sexually different. Since male individuals of this species have a slightly greater body weight distribution than female individuals, the body weight was not an appropriate measurement for estimating size and biomass, especially when the sex of individuals in the stomachs of predators was unknown. These relationships provided essential information for future use in size and biomass estimation of O. variabilis, as well as the estimation of predator/prey size ratios in the diet of top predators.  相似文献

页岩气主要是以吸附相和游离相同时赋存于泥岩及其夹层中的天然气。辽河东部地区包括东部凹陷和东部凸起,历经基底和陆块形成阶段、地台发育阶段、裂谷发育阶段和坳陷发育阶段,是一个典型的改造型的叠合盆地。辽东地区发育多套烃源岩,它们各自具有独立性。这些烃源岩不仅为常规油气藏提供物质基础,也是页岩气成藏及勘探的主要对象。综合分析可知,东部地区有3 套页岩具备页岩气成藏条件,生烃条件优越,页岩厚度大,有机质丰度高。泥岩储集性能良好,微孔、微裂缝发育,脆性矿物含量较高,利于后期压裂改造。对储层含气性进行测试可知,古近系中的页岩气以游离态为主,东部凸起则以吸附态为主;因此东部凸起古生界页岩气对构造保存条件要求相对低。东部凹陷古近系热演化程度低,页岩气以游离态为主,且页岩油气共生,保存条件较好。对东部地区进行优选可知： 中生界3井区,东部凹陷青龙台地区、桃园、黄于热地区是页岩气勘探有利区;东部凸起佟3井区、王参1井南部井区是近期页岩气勘探的首选地区。  相似文献   

Growth of Black Holes and Their Host Spheroids in (Sub)mm-loud High-Redshift QSOs     

Cai-Na Hao  Xiao-Yang Xia  Shu-De Mao  Zu-Gan Deng  Hong Wu 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2008,8(1):12-24

We study the growth of black holes and stellar population in spheroids at high redshift using several (sub)mm-loud QSO samples. Applying the same criteria established in an earlier work, we find that, similar to IR QSOs at low redshift, the far-infrared emission of these (sub)mm-loud QSOs mainly originates from dust heated by starbursts. By combining low-z IR QSOs and high-z (sub)mm-loud QSOs, we find a trend that the star formation rate (M) increases with the accretion rate (Macc). We compare the values of M/Macc for submm emitting galaxies (SMGs), far-infrared ultraluminous/hyperluminous QSOs and typical QSOs, and construct a likely evolution scenario for these objects. The (sub)mm-loud QSO transition phase has both high Macc and M and hence is important for establishing the correlation between the masses of black holes and spheroids.  相似文献
